It is our great pleasure to announce that Paula and Gregory Chow Institute for Studies in Economics at Xiamen University, Center for Forecasting Science at Chinese Academy of Sciences and Basic Science Center for Econometric Modeling and Economic Policy Analysis at National Science Foundation of China will host "2023 International symposium on advance in panel data and time series econometrics" in honor of Professor Cheng Hsiao from July 8 to July 9, 2023, on the main campus (Xiamen Island) of Xiamen University. This symposium is sponsored by National Science Foundation of China.

The aim of this international symposium is to bring together econometricians or economists worldwide to Xiamen to create a great environment for discussions and exchanges in the modern econometrics research frontiers and also to celebrate Professor Hsiao on his 80^th anniversary, and his contributions to econometric theory and various applications, in particular the econometric theory of panel data, time series and program evaluation.

Professor Hsiao has made tremendous contributions to many areas in econometrics, including influential work on panel data econometrics. He has also made great contributions to the econometrics and economics education in China, especially in Xiamen University. Back in 1980, he was among the first seven world-class econometricians who came to Beijing and delivered lectures at the famous "Summer Palace Workshop". Since 2005, he regularly visits Xiamen University to give courses and lectures, and makes continuous efforts to help students and young scholars. In 2008, he initiated a fellowship program "Tseng Hsiao Fellowship Foundation" at Xiamen University, which is named after his father, a renowned land economist. This fellowship program is intended to support full-time students who cannot afford their tuition fees and living expenditure.

2023 面板数据与时间序列计量经济学前沿国际研讨会

——致礼萧政教授对中国计量经济学的杰出贡献

厦门大学邹至庄经济研究院、中国科学院预测科学研究中心、NSFC“计量建模与经济政策研究”基础科学中心将于2023年7月8-9日在厦门大学举办“2023 面板数据与时间序列计量经济学前沿国际研讨会——致礼萧政教授对中国计量经济学的杰出贡献”。本次研讨会得到国家自然科学基金的资助。

本次国际研讨会旨在汇集全世界的计量经济学家和经济学家，为现代计量经济学研究前沿的讨论和交流创造良好的环境，同时也为庆祝萧政教授80华诞，并向其对计量经济学理论及其应用所做出的杰出贡献致礼。

萧政教授在计量经济学的许多领域都做出了巨大贡献，包括在面板数据计量经济学领域产出了极具影响力的成果。同时，他还为推动中国和厦门大学计量经济学和经济学教育的发展做出了重要贡献。早在1980年，他就作为第一批来北京的七位世界级计量经济学家之一，在著名的“颐和园讲习班”上进行授课。自2005年以来，他定期到厦门大学讲学，并一直帮助和支持着厦大学子和青年学者成长。2008年，萧政教授在厦门大学以其父亲萧铮先生的名字命名，设立“萧铮助学金基金”，用以资助厦门大学家境贫寒的在学学子或因贫困无法到校报到学子。
